Do not let the disappointment of the moment
Linger too long with your soul, my friend …
Commit to discarding its woeful garment and
The propensity to overwhelm the spirit with despair.
Rather, seek within and around you that which uplifts
And in earnest measure find joy, and maximize to your
Own advantage, the treasures of the unique gift, of each day.

I am overwhelmed by your grace, oh Lord
For your mercy consumes my soul with joy.
You have constantly been attendant to my cries
And you have heard my silent weeping in the night.
Although, errant are my ways from your righteousness
Even yet, thy favour present and sudden embrace me.
Amid all the cares of this great universe under your charge
You in mercy incline thine ear unto my pleas, and in the
Abundance of thy healing power with blessings surround
My being, despite myself and despite my sins.
You with your faithfulness, cease not to part the
Red seas of my life, and with thy angels land me safely
On the promised side, according to your time and will, in awe,
My mortal frames acknowledges thy wondrous supremacy
And that through all life, thou are more than sufficient unto me.
Rejoice oh my soul, for the Lord of all creation, has in
Faithful covenant, manifest yet again, His love for me.
Blessed be the name of my God, the Almighty Jehovah
Ever present, mighty and ever victorious on the battlefield.
All praise, glory and thanksgiving be yours, my King
Forever and through the ageless age of eternity.

When situation occasions agony
And sorrow’s pain tends to linger on.
Forbear prolonged lamentation,
Lest in triumph it thrives and flourishes
Overcoming all avenues for joy within.
For the sorrow nurtured and kept alive
Forever as a companion tends to stays beside…
While that disposed of, in time, dissipates
Sparing more tears and anguish pronounced.
Nurture misery not, grief ‘s plan neither abet.
Truly, it is the soul, that despairs, that must
For its benefit, to hope eternal cling…
And the heart that in distressed anguish weeps
For its own plain relief, gladness must seek.
Thus within life’s brevity meant for all things
Extend not sorrow if it adventures near, that
It may not find habitation beyond its due…
But in earnest, room make for emotions pleasant,
Because ’tis when sorrow is bid farewell
That happiness, can fulfill its means and purpose
In joy’s delight and comfort, blossom free
Residing indeed amid inner solace and peace.
